Rename wine?

2000-11-09 Thread Jeremy White
Agreed; today the best approach IMO is to use LD_LIBRARY_PATH in a wrapper script like winelauncher. But of course this only works if we never set rpath. I agree with this, and the package I'm building relies on winelauncher. In fact, I rename the wine binary to 'wine.bin' and install

RE: Patch to fix Solaris 7 x86 thread support

2000-11-09 Thread Patrik Stridvall
Ummm ... do you suggest that wine not support Solaris? It does support Solaris 2.6 as long you don't link with libthread or libpthread, which Wine currently doesn't. Ü I've dug deeper into this. Unfortunately in some situations Wine does

wineserver - linux kernel idea

2000-11-09 Thread Mike McCormack
Hi All, i've got a half baked idea about splitting the wineserver into a generic database module in the kernel and extra code in libwine, so i'd like to run it past you to see if it makes any sense... (i think it's different from previous ideas about kernel modules) As i understand it, the
